Two competing explanations for deviant employee responses to supervisor abuse are tested. A self-gain view is compared with a self-regulation impairment view. The self-gain view suggests that ...distributive justice (DJ) will weaken the abusive supervision-employee deviance relationship, as perceptions of fair rewards offset costs of abuse. Conversely, the self-regulation impairment view suggests that DJ will strengthen the relationship, as experiencing abuse drains self-resources needed to maintain appropriate behavior, and this effect intensifies when employees receive inconsistent information about their organizational membership (fair outcomes). Three field studies using different samples, measures, and designs support the self-regulation impairment view. Two studies found that the Abusive Supervision × DJ interaction was mediated by self-regulation impairment variables (ego depletion and intrusive thoughts). Implications for theory and research are discussed.

The Common-Sense Model of Self-Regulation (the “Common-Sense Model”, CSM) is a widely used theoretical framework that explicates the processes by which patients become aware of a health threat, ...navigate affective responses to the threat, formulate perceptions of the threat and potential treatment actions, create action plans for addressing the threat, and integrate continuous feedback on action plan efficacy and threat-progression. A description of key aspects of the CSM’s history—over 50 years of research and theoretical development—makes clear the model’s dynamic underpinnings, characteristics, and assumptions. The current article provides this historical narrative and uses that narrative to highlight dynamic aspects of the model that are often not evaluated or utilized in contemporary CSM-based research. We provide suggestions for research advances that can more fully utilize these dynamic aspects of the CSM and have the potential to further advance the CSM’s contribution to medical practice and patients’ self-management of illness.

The present study examined the association between behavioural dimensions of self‐regulation and respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), a marker of cardiac autonomic functioning in a sample of preschool ...children in the United States. Sixty‐six children’s emotion‐ and cognitive‐oriented dimensions of self‐regulation were examined with respect to changes in RSA (reactivity and recovery). Results showed that children’s recovery RSA, which indicates the ability to return to homeostasis, but not reactivity, was significantly associated with the cognitive‐oriented self‐regulation.

Background: The capacity to control or regulate one’s emotions, cognitions and behavior is central to competent functioning, with limitations in these abilities associated with developmental ...problems. Parenting appears to influence such self‐regulation. Here the differential‐susceptibility hypothesis is tested that the more putative ‘plasticity alleles’ adolescents carry, the more positively and negatively influenced they will be by, respectively, supportive and unsupportive parenting.
Methods: One thousand, five hundred and eighty‐six (1586) adolescents (n = 754 males; n = 832 females) enrolled in the American Add Health project were scored in terms of how many of 5 putative ‘plasticity alleles’ they carried – the 10R allele of DAT1, the A1 allele of DRD2, the 7R allele of DRD4, the short allele of 5HTTLPR, and the 2R/3R alleles of MAOA. Then the effect of the resultant index (ranging from 0 to 5) of cumulative‐genetic plasticity in moderating effects of parenting on adolescent self‐regulation was evaluated.
Results: Consistent with differential susceptibility, the more plasticity alleles males (but not females) carried, the more and less self‐regulation they manifested under, respectively, supportive and unsupportive parenting conditions.
Conclusion: Adolescent males appear to vary for genetic reasons in their susceptibility to parenting vis‐à‐vis self‐regulation, perhaps due to epistatic and/or epigenetic processes. G×E research may benefit from compositing candidate genes. To afford comparative evaluation of differential‐susceptibility vs. diathesis‐stress models of environmental action, future G×E work should focus on positive as well as negative environmental conditions and developmental outcomes.

Despite extensive evidence that time perspective is associated with a range of important outcomes across a variety of life domains (e.g., health, education, wealth), the question of why time ...perspective has such wide-reaching effects remains unknown. The present review proposes that self-regulatory processes can offer insight into why time perspective is linked to outcomes. To test this idea we classified measures of time perspective according to the dimension of time perspective that they reflected (e.g., past, present-hedonistic, future) and measures of self-regulation according to the self-regulatory process (i.e., goal setting, goal monitoring, and goal operating), ability, or outcome that they reflected. A systematic search identified 378 studies, reporting 2,000 tests of the associations between measures of time perspective and self-regulation. Random-effects meta-analyses with robust variance estimation found that a future time perspective had small-to-medium-sized positive associations with goal setting (r+ = 0.25), goal monitoring (r+ = 0.19), goal operating (r+ = 0.24), self-regulatory ability (r+ = 0.35), and outcomes (r+ = 0.18). Present time perspective, including being present-hedonistic and present-fatalistic, was negatively associated with self-regulatory processes, ability, and outcomes (r+ ranged from −0.00 to −0.27). Meta-analytic mediation models found that the relationship between future time perspective and outcomes was mediated by goal monitoring, goal operating, and self-regulatory ability, but not goal setting. As the first test of why time perspective is associated with key outcomes, the findings highlight the central role of self-regulation processes and abilities for understanding why people with certain time perspectives experience better outcomes.
Public Significance Statement
Time perspective has been linked to a range of important life outcomes, including those relating to people's health, wealth, happiness, academic success, and so on. The present review found that the reason why people who consider the future consequences of their present decisions and actions have better outcomes is because they are more likely to monitor how well they are doing and take action toward achieving better outcomes, and they are better able to regulate their behavior. This provides the first evidence that time perspective is associated with positive outcomes through its relationship with self-regulatory processes.

Despite consensus in the literature that regulation, technology push, and market pull drive eco‐innovation (EI), evidence remains limited on the diverse firm capabilities needed to boost EI. Building ...on the natural‐resource‐based view of the firm and the EI literature, this paper posits that firms need to renew and realign their capabilities, and ultimately develop distinctive sustainability‐oriented capabilities, in order to meet the rapidly changing regulatory, technology, and market demands. Results of the analysis, based on a survey of U.K. firms, reveal that EIs are more likely to arise when firms (a) build capabilities on voluntary self‐regulation (i.e., executive driven environmental management system and corporate social responsibility) because such organizational capabilities allow them to address increasing regulatory pressures; (b) invest in environmental research and development (i.e., eco‐R&D)—instead of generic research and development—because it provides them with the relevant and specific technological capabilities to tackle technology shifts towards sustainability; and (c) develop capabilities in green market sensing as such capabilities allow them to address green consumption needs.

We present a dynamic account of self-efficacy in entrepreneurship that integrates social-cognitive and control theory. According to our dynamic account, variability in self-efficacy energizes action ...because it involves self-motivation and discrepancy perception as competing motivational processes. We argue that variability and the average level in self-efficacy nascent entrepreneurs display over time support the enactment of entrepreneurial intentions and predict business ownership. The proposed positive effect of variability further implies an inverted u-shaped relationship between self-efficacy at a single point in time and business ownership. To test these hypotheses, we repeatedly assessed entrepreneurial self-efficacy of nascent African entrepreneurs during a 12-week entrepreneurship training program (total N = 241). Twelve months later, we assessed business ownership (total N = 190). We found that variability and the average level in entrepreneurial self-efficacy participants displayed during the training program were positively related to business ownership. Furthermore, for participants with strong entrepreneurial intentions, we found an inverted u-shaped relationship between entrepreneurial self-efficacy after the training program and business ownership. The study suggests that social-cognitive and control theory highlight different facets of self-regulation that both need to be accounted for to explain goal achievement in entrepreneurship.

This research aims to determine whether there is a relationship between self-regulation and career planning among twelfth-grade students at SMAN 100 East Jakarta. This study was conducted using a ...quantitative approach, specifically a correlational research design. The population of this study consisted of all twelfth-grade students at SMAN 100 East Jakarta, totaling 235 students. Sample calculation using the Slovin formula resulted in a sample of 148 students using simple random sampling technique. Data collection employed psychological scales for self-efficacy, self-regulation, and career planning. Data analysis technique involved simple linear regression analysis, followed by classical assumption tests including normality test, multicollinearity test, and heteroskedasticity test. The research instruments utilized psychological scales for self-regulation and career planning. The results of the study indicate a positive and significant relationship between self-regulation and career planning, with a significant value of 0.000 and an F value of 99.409. Therefore, since the significance value is less than 0.05 and the F value is greater than the F table value (3.06), the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. Based on the coefficient of determination, the obtained R Square value of 0.578 indicates that self-regulation influences career planning by 57.8%, while the remaining 42.2% is influenced by other factors.
•High trait self-control (TSC) was positively correlated with avoiding temptation.•People high (vs. low) in TSC were more likely to avoid distraction.•People high in TSC avoid, rather than merely ...resist, goal-inhibiting impulses.
High trait self-control has been traditionally described as a keen ability to resist temptation. The present research suggests that high trait self-control is linked to avoiding, rather than merely resisting, temptation. People high in trait self-control reported engaging in behaviors thought to minimize (or avoid) temptation to a greater extent than people low in trait self-control (Study 1). People high in trait self-control were more likely than those low in trait self-control to choose to work in a distraction-free environment rather than in a distracting, yet appealing, one (Studies 2 and 3).
